Outrage: Obama Admin Says Texans Can't Arrest UN Observers Even If They Violate Law

[WillowTree]

These international observers can be counted on to obey the law, but you cannot say that about the conservative groups that are the vocal opponents to allowing them around. Why are they defensive? What do they have to hide? A free and fair election should stand up to any amount of scrutiny.

Spoken like a true America haating libtarded idiot. The UN has NO business observing our elections.

You mean they have no business observing republican election rigging in action. If they are doing nothing shady they would not care, in fact they would be proud to display their perfection of democracy to the world.

 

[Seawytch]

Oh goody...more selective outrage.

 

[Dick Tuck]

You stupid bunch of wingnut assholes. You haven't yet figured out that OSCE is not the UN. You haven't yet figured out that our membership in the organization was signed by GWH Bush in 1990. You fucking morons are too stupid to realize that American signed treaties trump some tin foil state laws.

Now go and fucking secede, Texas. Good fucking riddance. On your own, you'll be back as part of Mexico in no time, and the Real Americans won't have to put up with your chauvinistic belief in your own exceptionalism.

A Texan took your girlfriend away from you once, didn't she?

It would never happen. Most Texans have big mouths and small dicks. So why do Texans want to piss on our constitution, and violate a validly signed international treaty? Sounds like more Texan bullshit and bluster.

You are too stupid to realize that you are stupid. Socialist idiot.

Wrong, you neo-fascist piece of shit. You're too stupid to understand that our Constitution supersedes state laws.

 

[bodecea]

Texas will do what Texas needs to do in upholding the law. Obama doesn't have a leg to stand on in telling a State they cannot arrest someone who breaks the law.

Has Texas seceded yet? What's taking so long? Texas needs to go...they want to go...we want them to go.

 

[Lonestar_logic]

Why am i not surprised this Administration would take this stance? 'President of the World' for ya i guess. Is it Election Day yet? Can't come soon enough. Time for a President of the United States of America.


In a development that should outrage every red-blooded, patriotic American, the Obama Administration announced that international observers in the United States cannot be arrested by state law enforcement even if the United Nations representatives violate state law.

As we publicized earlier this week, “United Nations-affiliated election monitors from Europe and central Asia will be at polling places around the U.S. looking for voter suppression activities by conservative groups.” [Click on this "Limited Election Observation Mission to the United States of America" list to see where the international observers will be deploying in your state.]

Unlike Alaska’s current passivity, Texas confronted this offensive intrusion by international observers with a warning from its Attorney General’s office: “[G]roups and individuals from outside the United States do not have jurisdiction to interfere with Texas elections.” The Attorney General himself also threatened that,

individuals from outside the United States are not allowed to influence or interfere with the election process in Texas. This State has robust election laws that were carefully crafted to protect the integrity of our election system. All persons—including persons connected with OSCE—are required to comply with these laws.

Elections and election observation are regulated by state law. The Texas Election Code governs anyone who participates in Texas elections—including representatives of the OSCE. The OSCE’s representatives are not authorized by Texas law to enter a polling place. It may be a criminal offense for OSCE’s representatives to maintain a presence within 100 feet of a polling place’s entrance. Failure to comply with these requirements could subject the OSCE’s representatives to criminal prosecution for violating state law...

Yep, we're hiding just as much as the folks that don't want to provide an ID, when they show ID we'll let some one watch them do it.

Indeed.

Texas, like the Federal Government, is very creative when picking and choosing which laws to enforce.

I don't have anything to hide, but I don't want government, of any sort, monitoring my life. This whole UN monitoring idea is an insult to America. Especially, since many of the monitors will be from countries that don't know what a free or fair election means.

The UN observers will have diplomatic immunity, but that does not mean they cannot be thrown out of any voting place, that state law prohibits non citizens from being in attendence.

Spoken like a true America haating libtarded idiot. The UN has NO business observing our elections.

Let me ask, outside of Texas (which needs to leave the Union), is it ILLEGAL to observe elections? Will I be arrested for observing?

When you start talking about "we" and "they" in regards to voting then you already have a serious problem, add to that Texas leading the charge to kill the voting rights act and your protestations sound kind of flat. Texas has a long history of screwing their voters, you are just going to have to live with the fact that no one trusts them at all to play nice on their own.

If you want to watch an election go to North Korea. We don't need you to watch our elections.

These people are highly professional, when they say observe that is what they are doing, all they will be doing. They will not interfere even if they witness blatant wrongdoing. Texas has nothing to fear except what may end up in their report after the fact.
